Just an additional comment on this code sample in respect of why I used a FOR loop to parse the records in the update file vs. using a WHILE loop. The reason is simple and equally applies in WinDev & VFP; the WHILE loop requires the use of 2 instructions; one to test for EOF() and another to move the record pointer. The FOR loop only requires 1 instruction (which is the equivalent of the GOTO). Obviously the SCAN is fastest since there are no additional instructions needed to be issued by our code but I don't know if WinDev supports that loop structure.
